12 Things you should know about Paul Ryan - Page 47

both sides have their demons.......progressives = Koch brothers, conservsatives = Soros.....

just making a point.

both sides distrust what the other is saying, both sides tend to be very closed minded.


imo - i want the size and every day intrusion into my life of the federal government to be significiantly reduced.

the federal government was set up to "speak" for the states, to keep them from fighting with one another, and to keep our borders safe, to make postal roads, and a few other limited things..... policians keep building a bigger and more intrusive federal government for the love of power and controll. it seems addictive to them.

You should do a little more research...people have actually studied the issue.  Just because it isn't what you want to believe doesn't mean it isn't true.

Kieth, please show links proving otherwise.....show me the way!

"I want the size and every day intrusion into my life of the federal government to be significiantly reduced"


Could you provide some examples as to how the govt intrudes into your life daily?

The “Frontline” special was made in conjunction with the Center for Public Integrity, using the results of a Pew Research Center poll. Like-minded organizations tend to scratch each other’s backs. In this case the Pew Research Center, and CPI are both funded by Soros. Pew got $500,000 in Soros money in 2009 alone. The Center for Public Integrity got $2,416,000 in Soros funds from 2000-2003.

could you find a source of information that doesn't have links to Soros or the Koch brothers?

lol - good one!

Now we don't want to talk about Soros?

"You should do a little more research...people have actually studied the issue.  Just because it isn't what you want to believe doesn't mean it isn't true."

I am not at all interested in believing things that aren't true.  Media coverage during a primary is going to contain more positive statements from the 7-8 Republican candidates about themselves and negative remarks against their 1 opponent to fit the algorismic programming.   So of course for the time frame of the referenced study, conservative positive hits would be high as would liberal negatives.  I don't see how a computer program can identify "bias."  It can only count positive and negative hits for a given subject matter at a particular time. 

News outlets that are not dependent on major funding, such as radio and the internet, tend to favor conservatives and the audience for these formats is growing while print and broadcast media, owned by and slanted toward liberals, is losing market shares.  This accounts for the  decreased media bias overall.  For those who rely on newspapers, magazines and TV, the bias is still obvious, although, as mentioned, it has decreased slightly when the truth becomes too obvious to ignore.
